How We Grow


Today I talked to you.
Your words were gentle,
Your embrace was warm,
You have always loved me.
I strayed from You,
and not on purpose
but rather I tried to do things
all on my own.
But You're always here,
and I can choose
to let You help and guide me.
There is nothing wrong  
with needing help.
At the end of the day
it's how we grow.

Thoughts


Thoughts and words
merit a certain responsibility.
Thoughts live in our mind,
and consciously or unconsciously
manifests into being.
Today, I will be aware of what I'm thinking,
why I'm thinking 
and how others will feel
with the my thoughts.
Today...I choose to think of compassion,
humbleness, compassion and love.

I See You Again


I see you again,
hiding in the shadows...
present so only I can see.
What should I do with you now?
Is knowing you're there enough?
Should I talk about you with others?
What use would that do.
Maybe the lesson is there…
to see you and not react to you.
You live in your space
as I live in mine.

I Thank Love

Thank you for a second chance.
Thank you for opening my eyes.
and allowing me to heal.
Thank you for keeping me here…
Another year passes
and a deeper appreciation grows.
Life is full of mysteries, complexities,
challenges and joy….
Today, I can say….
Im lucky to be here today,
I'm lucky to feel the love I do,
I'm lucky for so many blessings...
and I thank Love for all of it.

Today I Choose

"Life works out the way it's supposed to..."
I've heard this many times
and wondered, what role if any do I play?
Is life a series of random moments
weaved together by time?
Is karma real?
Are difficulties today because of sins of the past?
And as my mind attempts to get deeper, 
I choose to stop.
Why?
Because I play the most important role
by my choices, my thoughts, my actions…
As simple as, do I want a good day or bad?
It really does start in the mind
and the external is an extension of what's within.
Today I choose to let go, laugh, live, love...
Today I choose to feel joy.
